Cambodia Visa Documents FAQ — What You Need to Apply
The Cambodia eVisa requires only your passport bio page, a recent photo, and an email address — no flight tickets, no hotel bookings, no bank statements when you apply through us. Here are the questions travellers ask most about Cambodia visa documents.
What documents do I need for a Cambodia visa?
A clear scan of your passport bio page (JPG, PNG, PDF or HEIC, up to 10 MB), a recent passport-style colour photo with plain white background, and a valid email address. That is it. No flight ticket, no hotel booking, no bank statement.
Do I need a flight ticket to apply for a Cambodia eVisa?
No. When you apply through our service, no flight booking is required upfront. You only need your passport bio page and a photo to start. The government does not require flight tickets for eVisa applications routed through us.
Do I need a hotel booking for a Cambodia visa?
No. Hotel reservations are not required when you apply for a Cambodia eVisa through our service. Border officials may occasionally ask about your stay — having a screenshot of any booking helps, but it is not needed for the eVisa itself.
Do I need a bank statement for a Cambodia visa?
No. We do not require proof of funds, bank statements, payslips, or any financial documents for the Cambodia eVisa. Our process is designed to be fast and document-light — your passport and photo are the main inputs.
What are the Cambodia visa photo requirements?
A recent colour photo, plain white or off-white background, face clearly visible, no sunglasses or hat (religious headwear allowed). We auto-format your photo to Cambodian government specs (35x45mm, JPG) — most phone selfies on a white wall work fine.
What file formats can I upload for my Cambodia visa application?
JPG, JPEG, PNG, PDF, and HEIC (iPhone) are all accepted, up to 10 MB per file. Our team converts everything to the format the Cambodian government requires — you do not need to convert beforehand.
How long must my passport be valid for Cambodia?
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from your planned arrival date in Cambodia — not from today. Airlines enforce this rule at check-in. Renew your passport before applying if you are close to the 6-month threshold.
Yes — at least one blank visa page is required for the Cambodian entry stamp. Most countries advise carrying a passport with 2+ blank pages for any international travel.
Can I use a damaged or worn passport for Cambodia?
A passport with significant damage, water exposure, torn pages, or a missing photo page may be refused at boarding or at Cambodian immigration. If in doubt, renew before applying for your Cambodia eVisa.
Do children need separate documents for Cambodia?
Yes. Every traveller — including infants — needs their own passport, photo, and Cambodia eVisa. Children cannot travel on a parent's eVisa. Apply for each family member individually.
Can I use a glasses-on photo for my Cambodia visa?
No. Prescription glasses must be removed for the photo. Sunglasses are never allowed. Religious headwear (hijab, turban, kippah) is allowed provided the full face from chin to forehead is visible.
What if my Cambodia visa photo is rejected?
Our team auto-formats and reviews your photo before submission. If it fails government specs, we email you a re-upload request with specific guidance — most issues resolve in under an hour without delaying your processing window.
Do I need to upload my whole passport for Cambodia?
No — only the bio page (the one with your photo, name, and machine-readable lines). Other pages, visas, and stamps are not required for the Cambodia eVisa application.
Can I apply with a scanned printout instead of a phone photo?
Yes. A flatbed-scanned passport bio page is often clearer than a phone photo. Either works as long as all four corners, all text, and the machine-readable zone (MRZ) at the bottom are sharp and legible.
What documents do I need at the Cambodian border on arrival?
Bring your printed Cambodia eVisa (2 copies on A4 paper), your passport, and your completed e-Arrival confirmation. Mobile screenshots of the eVisa are NOT accepted at Cambodian immigration.
